object store in Heroku?

[lsiden]

Does Heroku have anything like Google's Object Store? Based on the
site, they seem to host only a SQL database for storage. I just want
to store serialized (stringified) JSON objects keyed off of SHA1
hashes. I suppose I could do that in a SQL table defined as "name(key
char(n), json text)" (in pseudo-code). Any other recommendations?

I think what you're looking for is ActiveRecord::Base#serialize,
though I think this serializes as YAML:

http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActiveRecord/Base.html#M002284

You could generate the SHA1 keys with a before_save callback.
